This commit introduces:
1) JIT provider abstraction, which allows JIT functionality to be
implemented in separate shared libraries. That's desirable because
it allows to install JIT support as a separate package, and because
it allows experimentation with different forms of JITing.
2) JITContexts which can be, using functions introduced in follow up
commits, used to emit JITed functions, and have them be cleaned up
on error.
3) The outline of a LLVM JIT provider, which will be fleshed out in
subsequent commits.
Documentation for GUCs added, and for JIT in general, will be added in
later commits.
